All resources and vacancies in my Department are managed through a robust Workforce Planning process. I wish to inform the Deputy that as at 13 July 2017 there are 18 vacancies in my Department, details of which are outlined in the following table:
Division | Number of vacancies |
---|---|
Banking Division - FMU | 3 |
Economic Division | 3 |
EU & International Division | 2 |
EU & International Division - Corporate Affairs | 1 |
Financial Markets & Pensions Division | 3 |
International Finance | 3 |
Minister Donohoe's Constituency Office | 1 |
Minister of State D'Arcy's Office | 1 |
Tax Policy Division | 1 |
Grand Total | 18 |
All 18 vacancies are in the process of being filled. Vacancies are filled through various means including open/interDepartmental and internal competitions, mobility and secondments. The length of time the vacancies are open is specific for each post and is dependent on the appropriate method of filling each vacancy. I can advise the Deputy that some posts have become vacant very recently while others have been vacant for a number of months. My officials are working with the relevant stakeholders including the Public Appointments Service, other Government Departments and candidates to reduce the time periods for filling vacancies.
